Most companies are not thinking > beyond a 4-5 year time horizon. > Bill Gates - September 2000, in Red herring > > Contributors : > Remi Vespa, CEO, Silicon Recognition (USA) > Babak Hodjat, CTO, Dejima (USA) > Neil Scott, Chief Engineer and Leader, Archimedes Project, Stanford > University (USA). > For more detail on contributors see > http://www.smartnet.co.nz/events/siliconvalleyworkshop.htm > Where : > Wednesday 12 December, > 11.30am - 1.00pm, > Imagitech Theatre, Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology > > Workshop Description: > Three Silicon Valley technologists will highlight the latest technology > developments in areas such as intelligent agent systems, human interface > technology and pattern recognition. This workshop will be of particular > interest to technology and research organisations working on new product > opportunities that have a human interface or pattern recognition element. > Awareness of pitfalls in development i.e. time scales, investment issues, > partnerships, correct identification of human capabilities and strengths > will also be covered. Real case studies will be included. > > Aim: > 1. To allow companies that are developing technology with a human > interface element to gain new knowledge about intelligent agent systems. > The integration of intelligent agent systems into products allows the > development of intuitive/ natural interaction user interfaces. This in > turn reduces the technological learning barrier required to use a product > or service, making the product more marketable. > > 2. To allow companies to gain an understanding of the unique ZISC > technology. Zisc technology has revolutionised the field of pattern > recognition. The workshop will demonstrate how ZISC technology is ideally > suited for pattern recognition applications such as image and voice > recognition, signal recognition, data filtering and mining, and data > storage and retrieval. > > COST: Special Rate: $40 + GST pp > > BOOK: E-mail mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] to book. > > _________________________________________ > Lukey Training/SmartNet > Mancan House, 236 Manchester Street. > P O Box 13-577, CHRISTCHURCH > Phone: (03) 3667-874 Fax: (03) 3667-807 > Lukey Training Resources: <http://www.lukey.co.nz/> > SmartNet workshops: <http://www.smartnet.co.nz/> > _________________________________________ > "The ability to learn faster and deeper than your competitors > may be the only sustainable competitive advantage."
